Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAX | NOTE 6 - INCOME TAX Income tax expense for interim periods is recognized based on the annualized effective tax rate expected for the full year adjusted for the tax effect of certain items recognized in full in the interim period. Our effective tax rate was 35.7% and 26.0% of our income before income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 37.6% and 26.0% of our income before income tax for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 includes the impact of the temporary surtax in France, which was enacted in February 2025 and resulted in a statutory tax rate of 29.28% for 2025, compared to 25.82% in 2024. The difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to the geographical mix of our pre-tax results and losses in certain jurisdictions where we have recorded a full valuation allowance.
